To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
We must not think that in entering upon the solution of this problem, we are called to a holiday festival. We are to pass through many and fierce trials. The fair and young. And brave shall taste the bitterness of death under the rays of the Southern sun, and garments of mourning shall 8 abound in our streets. "We are to walk through the liery furnace of afHiction. To-day the nation o-roans with the pains of its second birth. Southern Hotspurs driven like the money changers ot okl, from the tem...ple which they have desecrated, have fired upon the flag which for 80 years has protected them — the banlis of the Potomac, where sleeps the Father of his country, are bristling with hostile cannon, and the "soft-flowing James" may ere long trace its courso through desolated villages and by fields of carnage, and stagnate with the blood of Anglo Saxon men. The nations of the old world look in tremulous anxiety for the result. Patriot hearts grow sad ; and tyrants represent- ing dead fogyisms, cry in exultant tones — this is the end of Republican Institutions — this their boasted perpetuity — this the great nation whose flag waved such a saucy defiance towards old conventionalisms — this the marvel of govern- ments which heralded the redemption of the world — come let us go up to our jubilee.
